Apparently, transmigrators all need underlings

"Assassin..."

"Hey Astr, have you finally decided to let me take down that morally bankrupt redhead? My sword is itching to be used!"

Upon receiving Tokiomi Tohsaka's communication, Kirei immediately contacted Jizi. Before he could even finish his first sentence, Kiko excitedly continued. At the same time, from their shared field of vision Kirei's Srvant had already drawn its weapon and was slowly approaching Ryunosuke.

"Stop!"

"Ha?!"

Despite her reluctance, Jizi could not disobey Astra's direct orders, so she had no choice but to suspend the operation and give Kirei a questioning look.

"My master has given me orders to search for the whereabouts of the two Srvant, brsrkr and anr, who have yet to appear."

"Tohsaka's orders? Are you kidding me?" Tokiomi isn't an idiot; he can't think straight, can he? Given the urgency of the situation, would he really ignore Astra and go looking for trouble with Kayneth and Yanye? "Then what about Astra?"

"No matter how powerful the summoned familiar is, it can't withstand the attack of the King of Heroes' Noble Phantasm—Astr is already dead, so you should keep an eye on the others' movements."

Even if Jizi wasn't a time traveler, she could tell that Kirei was lying. Putting aside the fact that his tone seemed to be trying too hard to be calm, the fact that he would explain it to Jizi was very strange—normally, this Father would have just dismissed her with a simple "Just do your job and don't worry about anything else," why would he give a reason?

Moreover, this reason is fabricated— Gilgamesh could undoubtedly kill Astr in one blow, but would the proud and arrogant King of Heroes really attack a heretic like Astr? Jizi says, I may not be well-read, but I have read Gen Urobuchi's original works, so don't lie to me.

It's unclear whether Tokiomi has sent any orders, but even if he has, it certainly wouldn't be as Kirei relayed. Now, Jizi is facing a difficult choice—should she pretend not to obey Kirei's orders, or should she act on her own and swiftly eliminate Ryunosuke?

Even if Kirei had Command Seals, at this distance, Jizi was absolutely certain she could take down Ryunosuke before he could react—the Assassin class is no joke! But what then? What should they do next?

Kirei's betrayal is an undeniable fact—if you look at the original story, he switched sides around this Jizi, due to her promise to Rin and her inability to defeat Gilgamesh, naturally cannot betray him as well. However, it would be unwise to break ties with Kirei now—how can she strike a balance?

Before Kirei stabbed him in the back, Tokiomi never imagined his beloved student would betray him, so Jizi couldn't warn Tokiomi. At the same time, she couldn't appear too inclined towards Tofu Priest Mapo, lest she be distrusted by Tokiomi when the truth came out. Even more troublesome was that she couldn't lean too much towards Tokiomi now, lest Kirei sense something was wrong and sell her out, incidentally gaining a free excuse:

[Responsibility Brain Theater--]

"Kirei, I clearly told Assassin to assassinate Asstr, why hasn't he done it?"

"I apologize, my master. Castr set a Magecraft trap on his assassin, who underestimated him because his opponent was an ordinary person and was killed by the trap."

"Really? It seems Assassin isn't all that great after all. I even considered giving her a big shot back then. What a miscalculation. Looks like I still need to work on my judgment of people."

He was immediately attacked by Kirei's kidneys after he finished speaking...

So not only did Jizi fail to woo the loli, but all the goodwill he had accumulated with his father-in-law was wiped out. His father-in-law also died, so the loli's goodwill was also wiped out; she died too. What a tragedy...

"Damn it! Who wants such a tragic ending!" Jizi shook her head violently to banish the images that had just crossed her mind. Now was not the time to let her imagination run wild; she needed to quickly figure out a way to deal with Kirei, who was already suspicious.

"Alright, Assassin, why aren't you taking action yet?"

"I'll go right now!"

In short, let's agree for now. Tokiomi hasn't delivered the sword yet, so he should be safe. All we need to do is quickly complete Kirei's mission and then take down Ryunosuke.

Once the plan was finalized, Jizi activated her job skill and vanished into thin air without anyone noticing.

Kirei, who should have been able to discern the unusual reaction from Srvant, was himself caught up in philosophical contemplation of the meaning of existence, but fortunately, Jizi managed to confuse him.

"Why would I lie about orders? Do I want to betray my master? Why would I want to betray my master?"

---------------Because of pleasure-----------------------

On a street near the riverbank, a hooded figure staggered along, leaning against the wall, coughing up blood every now and then.

Under normal circumstances, someone nearby would have called the police long ago, but because of the strange occurrence at the Mion River, the street was deserted, so Kariya Matou didn't need to bother hiding himself.

"Tokiomi... Tokiomi..."

Her condition was so bad that she could barely maintain consciousness, but Yanye still mechanically moved her lips, murmuring a name.

"Tokiomi... I'll kill you... Tokiomi..."

This tragic man is struggling towards the source of the tragedy, but he encounters an obstacle—

"You must be the Sven of BRSKR? I am but a lowly Heroic Spirit of the Seat of the Lance. Summon your Servant and let us engage in a duel worthy of the Holy Grail War!"

The person who suddenly appeared in front of him was someone Yanye recognized. He was the Servant's opponent in the battle at Fuyuki Port. Although he didn't know the real name, he was clearly a famous Knight from Celtic legend. Even the skilled warrior Brsrkr couldn't gain much advantage against him.

"Get out of the way!"

Despite being just a human, he dared to roar at Heroic Spirit heroic spirit despite its imposing presence. How terrifying and pitiful it is to have a heart consumed by hatred.

Thanks to ANR's good manners, he didn't get angry even though he was treated so politely. He twirled his spear and said, "Although I'm not your BRSKR's true form, judging from his attire, I should be Knight. And duels between Knight are sacred! We were stopped that day due to obstacles, but today the opportunity is right, so I've come to learn from you!"

His words, though seemingly righteous, were merely empty rhetoric to maintain appearances. The real reason for ANR's appearance was that his ASTR had ordered him to stop BRSrkr from reaching the river. While ASTR might not have intended to issue such an order, a loyal Knight doesn't need so many; simply fulfilling the command is sufficient.

"Just a defeated opponent! Brsrkr, finish him off quickly!"

To avoid war, Yanye summoned his Servant in order to see Tokiomi as soon as possible and ordered a swift victory.

"A defeated opponent?" The other party's words finally provoked ANR, and for the first time, anger appeared on his Radiant Visage face. "That day, because of ASTR's orders to conceal our Noble Phantasm and trump cards, we were held back and thus suffered a disadvantage! But to call us 'defeated' is too early!"

A powerful aura erupted from ANR, and his spear pointed directly at BRSrkr.

"I've been given the order by my lord to fight with all my might and without holding back. You're the one who's going to lose!"

The battle between the two "First Knight" has begun once again.

------------------Somewhere Elsewhere--------------

"Not good, Kayneth."

"It is my honor to serve my master."

Two voices could be heard coming from the shadows; the first was that of a pretty young girl, and the second was that of a steady middle-aged man.

"In your opinion, what are ANR's chances of winning if they go all out?"

"From Srvant's perspective, it's about a 50/50 chance, but BRSrkr's Master is in poor condition, so ANR's chances of winning are over 70%."

Although both were hidden in the shadows where the light couldn't reach, the girl's silver hair, flowing like Mercury, could still be seen by the faint starlight. The other Kayneth, with his blond, slicked-back hair, remained bowed and saluted when facing the girl, but upon closer inspection, one could see an unnatural, fiery red glint in his eyes, and a bird-shaped mark seemingly emanating from his pupils.

"Don't defeat the opponent, keep brsrkr and the others tied up there, understand?" (The novel website does not skip words.)

"Ys, yr-hignss!"

Kayneth, having received the order, quickly left, leaving Jizi there with a wicked grin on his face.

"Hmph, luckily I had already laid the groundwork..."

--------------------A few days ago----------------

Kiritsugu Emiya's sniper bullet struck Kayneth precisely. Even with the latter's prized Mercury Dress, his reaction couldn't outpace a sniper bullet traveling at 900 meters per second. Hidden behind him, Jizi clearly saw the obvious bullet hole in the chest of the genius from the prestigious Archibald family.

If we leave it like this, life will soon slip away from this body...

However, Jizi wasn't going to say "if." She quickly moved to Kayneth's side, took out the Recovery Potion she had prepared earlier, and poured it into his mouth. Although a lot spilled out from his lips, the effect was still obvious; Kayneth's wounds were healing at a visible speed.

A conceptual Props from the game that forcibly replenishes health regardless of the type of wound—it's that illogical and unreasonable.

After healing Kayneth's injury, Jizi plucked a tuft of Ahoge from her head, then picked out a single strand and gathered its magic into her eye.

The already blood-red pupils became even more vibrant, radiating light, and a faint bird-shaped mark appeared within them.

Jizi looked directly into Kayneth's eyes, who had just come to their senses and was still confused about what had happened, and declared:

"By Gass' command, Kayneth El- El-Melloi Archibald, become my Jizi's slave!"

"Ys, yr-hignss!"

P. S. 1. I'm also trying to recall what happened in A Route... so there might be some romantic subplots. If it's not too offensive, please forgive me. I'll revise anything that is offensive.

P. S. 2. I've added a foreshadowing element, though I almost forgot about it.

P. S. 3. Actually, A Route is suspected of plagiarism. Does anyone...? How about we play a game? If you can guess which book I plagiarized, I'll update twice the next day? By the way, is anyone expecting me to update twice?
